Snowflake GitHub Actions Flaw Lets Crafted Issues Trigger Command Injection

Wiz disclosed a GitHub Actions workflow injection in Snowflake's snowflake-connector-net repo that exposed Jira API tokens; Snowflake patched the flaw.

Wiz disclosed a workflow injection flaw in Snowflake's snowflake-connector-net repository, where attacker-controlled GitHub issue fields were expanded directly into a shell run block. Wiz's Red Agent exploited it during authorized security testing, received an out-of-band runner callback and retrieved a Jira API token with read access to engineering, security compliance and bug bounty projects. Snowflake merged a fix on June 23, 2026, rotated the token and said its investigation found no evidence of unauthorized access. No CVE, CVSS score or KEV entry has been assigned for the issue.

cPanel Urges Users to Patch ConfigServer Firewall Remote Code Execution Flaw

cPanel urges administrators to patch CVE-2026-65638, a flaw letting unauthenticated attackers run commands through ConfigServer Firewall's MESSENGER service; update to CSF 16.30.

CVE-2026-65638 in ConfigServer Security & Firewall (CSF) 14.00–16.29 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the MESSENGER service, which is exposed only when MESSENGER is enabled and a reCAPTCHA secret has been configured. Exploitation yields command execution under the unprivileged CSF service account, providing a foothold for reconnaissance, data access, or lateral movement on internet-facing cPanel/WHM hosting infrastructure. CSF 16.30 or later fixes the issue; disabling MESSENGER in /etc/csf/csf.conf and restarting csf and lfd is a temporary mitigation.
